Jamestown Jammers News Release
STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. - Staten Island jumped out to an early lead, and the Jamestown offense failed to string anything together as the Yankees blanked the Jammers, 5-0, Monday afternoon at Richmond County Bank Ballpark.
The Baby Bombers scored a run in the ï¬Ârst and two in the second to put the game out of reach, while the Jamestown offense was held to just four hits after pounding out 27 hits in the ï¬Ârst two games of the series.l
Pedro Mendoza paced the Jamestown offense with two hits including a double, while Kentrell Dewitt and Marquise Cooper each had one hit.
Staten Island jumped on the board in the ï¬Ârst inning on a manufactured run. Mason Williams singled then stole second base. He moved to third on a ï¬ây out before scoring on a ground out by Ben Gamel.
The Yankees loaded the bases on a double, single and walk in the bottom of the second with nobody out. After Jamestown got a runner at the plate for the ï¬Ârst out, Robert Reinard blooped one to center to score another two runs before a double play ended the frame.
The Jammers best and only real scoring opportunity came in the top of the third inning.
Mendoza doubled, Cooper singled and Austin Barnes walked to ï¬Âll the bases with two outs; however, Terrence Dayleg grounded out to end the threat.
The Jammers got the leadoff runner in the ï¬Âfth and sixth; however, both times the runner was immediately eliminated when the next batter bounced into a double play.
Staten Island pushed across another run in the seventh inning on three singles, and they added another in the eighth on a double by Reymond Nunez to put the game out of reach.
Williams paced the Staten Island offense with three hits. Nunez, Gamel and Angelo Gumbs each added two hits with a double, and Robert Rinard delivered two singles.
